Terrific series, clipper! I especially like this shot of the Pied Egrets engaging in an aerial dispute.

Interracial conflict amongst Little Egrets at Fogg Dam. In the left corner we have race nigripes from Australia, Indonesia and PNG up against the occasional vagrant, race garzetta, from Asia, Africa and Europe. Note nigripes' yellow lores and black feet (with yellow soles) versus garzetta's greenish grey lores and yellow feet. Needless to say, the Aussie saw the interloper off!:-D

Cool looking shot, Pippan! It looks like he got caught in a neck stretcher. :p

Great action shot series, Pippan! You really captured the fight action very nicely!

Thanks LD, with so many birds in a small area, there's a fair bit of conflict.
